Another Day - Another Post!

Wow, 2 days, 2 posts!

Actually I know I owe replies to comments, and also a reply to a freind via email, but wanted to get this done.

I am working again later, but want to actually get some housework done before I go. I still can't get organised, like Mum was, but I am trying to keep on top of things better (no, it's not a new-year resolution otherwise I would never keep it!!)

On Sunday morning it was lovely and dry and I did manage a walk, and took the camera, and spotted some lovely signs that February had started ... and Spring would be on the way -









And, the proof that we have had a lot of rain ... the drops are still lingering -

Actually it's raining again today so I would be able to take lots of raindrop photos!

Well cleaning is calling ... so I shall get that done, and then hopefully get back here and answer comments, and see what your posts have been saying.

But, as ever, before that -




3. Is there a book you’ve seen made into a film and been disappointed with the result?
The last film adaptation of Emma I saw, I actually turned the TV off after about 1/2 an hour. 
Also the last series of Anne Of Green Gables totally invented a storyline that didn't exist.



Right, lte's try and catch up in a moment.

Thank you for these glimpses of green. We're still buried in snow and ice, and Hope is a wonderful thing!

We have had so much rain and wind that I was surprised to see things growing through the puddles!

Cleaning is calling? I wish it would call here; ideally with a team of cleaners to answer the call.

Hee - what a brilliant idea

I have to do things on specific days otherwise I don't have any routine. It must be much more difficult as you don't always work on the same days, do you...

[debris4spike]

Yes, Mum was great at specific days for specific things.

I have spent years on a varied work diary, although things are more settled at present. However as I need to be out of the house at 12.45 I sometimes find time is against me ... especially with shopping etc now I am relying on buses.

Yes, many books are made into horrible movie adaptations too many to count

[debris4spike]

It's rare to get a good adaptation.

I read The Princess Bride years before the film was made, and did wonder if I would enjoy the film ... but that is a good film

Watership Down was made into a good film adaptation in 1978 considering how complex the book was.

I will admit I couldn't watch that ... too sad for me!

How did you know it was sad if you didn't watch it? :p

It was actually both sad and violent!!
